In Hearts Wake is an up and coming Australian hardcore band. Not much is known about these guys, except for the fact that they just released an album and are all set to tour their home of Australia from January to Spring. They may not be very well known now, but after listening to their album, there is no doubt that they will be huge soon.
The album is called ‘Divination’, and while there are some bands who just come up with an album title just because it’s cool, In Hearts Wake has taken this name to heart. Each and every song is dedicated to a different tarot card, each with it’s own story and meaning. The first song is called Neverland, and it is based on the tarot card, The Star. The song is about the hope to carry on even through difficult times. The third song, Departure is the song that deals with the tarot card, Death. Though it seems like it would be an extremely dark song, it deals with letting go. This is the most powerful song, with heavy riffs and simple rhythms. The “Boom” after the chorus is known to cause more than a few mosh pits. The Unknown revolves around the tarot card, Strength. The meaning behind it is the spirit overcoming all obstacles. This song features a different breakdown than normal, where everything comes to a pause, and then it commences. Survival is based off of The Chariot. It talks about surviving in this world on your own. The band added in a line from one of their favorite video games, Halo, in this one. Shapeless is based off of the Judgement card. The song deals with awakening your spirit and choosing a path, good or evil. The line ‘Mother, father, won’t you make me brave? Or will I live life to an early grave?’ is a perfect question to sum up the song’s powerful meaning. The driving riffs and rythmhs of Lorely, which is based on The Lovers, is a song that deals with two forces balances, another way of talking about a relationship. The breakdown is one of the most catchy and inspirational of the whole album.
In Hearts Wake delivers a powerful performance with ‘Divination’. Not only are the lyrics meaningful and powerful, the music is driving, and fitting for the mood of the lyrics. There are little to no flaws on this album, and I would recommend it to anyone who is willing to listen to true music.

The hunger games series was a great read throughout every book. The first book in the series The Hunger Games. Was a fast paced read that kept you on the edge of your seat while reading. It was almost impossible for me to put down while I was reading.

The tragedy that happened at Sandy Hook Elementary school was terrible. Many people will never know how the parents and families of the victims felt on that day and probably for the rest of their lives. These people will not know or ever even begin to understand what they felt, because words cannot explain the pain and heartache of such a horrible loss. When this happened, the news quickly spread fast, having a very strong emotional affect on many.

In my opinion, the Paranormal Activity movies are not even scary and all have the same ending.

Although Ted was an excellent movie, I must say that I was a little disappointed. Call me a perv, but I was kind of hoping for more vulgarity than there was.
